Arthur Strachan's book "Mauled by a Tiger" (1933) chronicles his experiences in the Jungles of Assam from the 1920s, the centerpiece of which is the shocking and grisly story that forms the title of the book.
It contains gripping accounts of his encounters with the Royal Bengal Tigers among the thick bamboo forests surrounding his tea plantation in the state of Assam, one of which takes a particularly nasty turn.
What makes it truly a classic of true wildlife adventures is the marked transformation that the author underwent as a result of his harrowing experience. Despite his misadventure, he retains his passion for the wild, albeit in a different and better form.
